A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy helping other people learn, and I get a sense of satisfaction when they grasp new information. I have tutored students needing help with homework assignments or studying for an exam. I requested that they bring their notes and textbook so that I use them as a reference when teaching. I can either answer specific questions or walk through the material. I ask the student questions about the material to make sure they understand the information completely. If the student is having trouble I will patiently go through the materials again until they fully understand the information.
I graduated with a BA from Rhode Island College in 2005, and went back to work on a MA the following fall. I am currently finishing up my degree and should be finished with my MA this spring. During my graduate career I had an assistantship where I helped set up classroom laboratories, aided in teachi ... read more

I am a firm believer in complete individualized, unique attention. It is critical to identify what motivates students and what techniques work best for them, and then work to enhance those skills and apply them to all subjects in order to be successful. By establishing the foundation for each students individual learning success, we can continue to build on those skills and progressively develop new skills and techniques to ensure that the student is confident in each subject he/she needs help with. It is my hope to not only strengthen the students in the subject I am assigned to tutor, but to establish skills that they can use beyond that one subject and into other subjects and in the classroom.

A Little Bit About Me...

Essentially my teaching style is goal oriented. I motivate students to build skills that are not only applicable short-term, but well into the future as well. These concepts are reinforced by applying skills to realistic situations and problem solving. In this way, my students will be able to leverage skills that they have acquired in myriad areas of interest to ensure their success.
While holding certification in three varied subjects, I feel that my strengths lie in teaching transferability of acquired skills. Having a bachelor degree in an educational field, an MBA, and 8 years of various "real world" experience that includes both retail and project management gives me an advantage when teaching. While in college and afterwards, I built a studio of music students that placed in the top two seats in Florida All-State bands, various regional student orchestras, and All-County ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I truly enjoy teaching. I am very easy going and I can make subjects easy to learn. Since I have an engineering background, I have the tendency to break complex problems into smaller parts. This makes it easier for the student to follow through. All my students in the past have enjoyed learning from me and I am certain that this will not change. I truly believe that anybody can learn math and science; it is a matter of time and perception. In other words, at what angle can the student learn the subject at hand and how quickly can the instructor find the student's vantage point.
While pursuing my Engineering degree at Roger Williams University, I noticed that there were not too many students from low income families attending college. That is why I joined Bridge to Success Program on January 2001. BTS was a program, sponsored by Roger Williams University at the time, which focused i ... read more

I use these methods with a dynamic demeanor and with positive re-inforcement remarks on their papers.I learned Portfolio method at the Junior College and have significant results with it.

With normal class size groups... the goal is to provide a lesson with real educational content but to deliver it in a totally entertaining format... usually organizing the students into groups to a) provide support for the challenged and b) excitement for the total class as each group competes against the others. one-on-one teaching requires that the objective(s) be well established and then carefully focus on the individual student's best learning method, be it: verbal, written, reading, hands-on, or all of the above. In general a good teacher will be well planned and offers a delivery which teaches in concentrated bursts, with a brief break every 20 minutes.

More About This Tutor...

I discovered the reward of helping others learn as a high school tutor. Later, as an English major, I tutored in our university's Writing Center. After graduation, I was asked to continue as a tutor/writing consultant for eleven more years. Working with all ages, fields of study, and levels of need, I gained valuable experience guiding others through the writing and revision process. I also enjoyed working with those for whom English is a second language. I have been a freelance book editor and writing consultant for the past several years. My skills best serve writing, reading, and language arts, but I am qualified to tutor any subject that requires proficiency in these areas.
My tutoring practice employs the Socratic method to help students help themselves become better writers, self-editors, and critical thinkers. I do not take a red pencil to their work and "fix it" ... read more

I believe the key to good teaching is understanding the subject from the student's perspective. As a teacher, it is easy to take for granted certain assumptions and prior knowledge that a student may lack. Each student brings a unique approach and starting point to the learning experience. The teacher's job is to find that starting point and lead the student from there to a place of deeper understanding and knowledge. If a student struggles to understand something, the teacher has probably "skipped a step" somewhere, and omitted some piece of the puzzle that the student does not yet have. When that happens, the teacher should go back to a place of mutual understanding and take smaller steps, being careful to take nothing for granted. My teaching style is especially well suited to a tutoring environment. With a single student, there is all the time I need to find and empathize with ... read more
